Snack Time

Who doesn’t like snacks? My kids and I love snacks! When you are an “on the go” mom, you depend on snacks in your bag. I’d like to shake a couple of my favourite snacks that I carry in my bag.

Somersault Snack Co.Celebrate the power of seeds. Great for those with nut allergies! Somersaults are crunchy nuggets baked with sunflower seeds and toasted grains. Their #1 ingredient is Sunflower seeds. They have as much protein as almonds with half the fat, a good source of fiber and vitamin e. This great nut free snack has just 140 calories and an abundance of flavour. They come in cinnamon crunch, salty pepper, sea salt, dutch cocoa and sante fe salsa.

Facts about sunflowers that you probably didn’t know:

7x more folate than almonds, pecans,

50% more protein than almonds

76% of your daily vitamin e

4x the antioxidant of blueberries

How do Somersaults compare to other common snacks?

As much protein but half the fat of a serving of almonds with fewer calories

1/3 the carbs of an energy bar

95% less sugar than an energy bar

My girlfriend introduced me to Rockwells Organic Toasted Coconut Chips.All I can say is I am addicted. I order boxes at a time! So yummy! They are the all-natural way to enjoy a sweet treat.
